Error opening PDF in browser

Description of the issue:
Receive error message when opening a PDF in a browser tab

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.

  1. The site I was on asked me if I wanted to open the PDF in a browser,
  2. I selected yes and, instead of seeing the PDF (like I would in Firefox) I saw white screen with a button labeled “Open”
  3. When I clicked on Open, a new tab opened showing the message

Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
After clicking Open, I saw this message in the new tab: “{“Message”:“The requested resource does not support http method ‘GET’.”}” The was blank after that.

Expected result:
I expected to see the PDF when I selected the show PDF option from the website I was on and not what I assume was a Brave window with an Open button. And obviously, not the error message.

Reproduces how often:
Always

Brave Version(about:brave):
0.57.18

Reproducible on current live release (yes/no):
Yes
